Are you kidding? Have you been to the manufacturing line of a large
systems manufacturer (I've been to several)? They wash boards down with
water over and over again in the manufacturing process? You can't hurt
boards with water, as long as you dry them off before you turn them back
on again, and you don't use soap. All my MicroVAXen have been through the
dishwasher at least once.

Peace... Sridhar
